The transformation of Jamestown is vividly captured through compelling photographs that chronicle its evolution from sheep farming to a vibrant resort destination and military installations. The book highlights the architectural shifts, including the emergence of the Shingle style, and showcases the island's grand summer hotels and historical ferries that once connected it to the mainland. Covering significant changes in landscape and community activities up to the 1940s, it offers a rich visual narrative of the island's diverse history.
